    I'm with @francisco in @buyshared with a reseller hosting, the first support are very fast and honest in terms of the problem solution, the second use litespeed enterprice that you combine with the WP plugin LSCache + PHP7.1 + Opcache, and you get in Gmetrix and PageSpeed Google Over 90%, I can tell you that LiteSpeed Enterprise with its built-in cache is faster than Apache and Nignx.

    Well, they still crash eventually. First signs are soft lockups, then they get worse and after a few days the server becomes unresponsive and must be reset.
    Why this happens, I dont know, i suppose it is some rare race condition, it happens eventually on all servers, some are more lucky than others, that one is a Methuselah, most crash after about a year.
    Being so rare I suppose we cant ask the devs to fix it, they wont simulate tens-hundreds of containers running everyday stuff and games for a year or more. I think it is stable enough now, it was much worse when they made the move to 2.6.32, uptimes of a few months were good back then.

    I generally blame both a fault of managing resources, and inept management. Even machines that do get beat (Inception, DavidGestion, etc) a bit, they're generally very stable- until some IRC shithead gets it flooded. ;)

    Long story short, if you don't want to feed it every few months, don't go OpenVZ. LXC are fine- I just don't like them. Everything I do other than super-cheap-or-minimal-services are KVM/VirtIO these days.

    "To keep the server load down on boot up, we do not automatically start all the VPSs again by default."

    So know that if they do an unannounced reboot of the host, you have to go click a button to bring your box back online.

    Sounds like a sign of putting 200 VMs on a single server. I never had load problems when I've done reboots in the past, at least not for over 2 minutes or so.

  • @vanhels thank you for the recommendation. My website is currently hosted on a shared hosted LiteSpeed webserver. Can I send you a PM?

    W3 Total Cache reduced the CPU peaking when reaching 900 concurrent users. But now the problem is disk I/O, it's limited to 5MBps and when the cache refreshes there is some seconds of waiting.

    Meanwhile, @vapornode has answered tickets fast to my custom requests. Good network, low latency to my country. VMs on different nodes to test a small high availability setup. 2 backups per VM. Only thing I don't like is the control panel being too slow sometimes, but VMs are performing so good. I always wanted to be hosted on Hivelocity by the way :D
